Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for lubricating gear wheels in transmission gearing, said arrangement including at least one conduit which is intended to deliver lubricant under pressure and which has an outlet orifice is located adjacent the gear wheel to be lubricated.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide for the lubrication of the gear wheels of a gear transmis­sion an arrangement which will eliminate the afore­described drawbacks and which will enable gear wheels of highly loaded transmission gearing to be lubricated effectively while simultaneously cooling the gear wheels.
  • This object is achieved in accordance with the invention in that the conduit adjacent the gear wheel to be lubricated discharges into at least one circular-­arcuate groove provided in an element which abuts the end surface of said gear wheel, wherein said groove or each groove is open towards the gear wheel and extends in the circumferential direction thereof and is located concentrically with the gear wheel and has an outer defining surface whose radius is somewhat larger than the radius of the bottom surface of said gear wheel.
  • Figure 1 is a sectional view of part of a gearbox. Since the remaining parts of the gearbox do not form part of the invention, they have not been shown.
  • the part illustrated in Figure 1 is a planetary gear means having a sun wheel 1 which is fitted on an axle 2 with the aid of a spline joint.
  • the teeth 3 of the sun wheel 1 mesh with the teeth 4 of a number of planet wheels 5 which are journaled on journal pins 7 by means of bearings 6, said journal pins being, in turn, carried by a planet wheel holder 8.
  • the teeth 4 of the planet wheels 5 also mesh with the teeth 9 of a ring wheel 10, which is carried, in turn, by a ring wheel holder 11.
  • the axle 2 is journaled in a bearing 12 which is moun­ted in a fixed part 13 of the gearbox housing. Abutting the inner ring of the bearing 12 is an intermediate element 14 in the form of a ring. One end surface 15 of the sun wheel 1 is in abutment with the ring 14. Abutting the other end surface 16 of the sun wheel 1 is a thrust means 17 which has the form of the head of a screw screwed into a threaded hole in the end of the axle 2. The sun wheel 1 is, in this way, held in place on the axle 2, together with the ring 14.
  • the ring 14 rotates together with the axle 2, the sun wheel 1 and the inner ring of the bearing 12.
  • a cover 18 which is fixedly connected to the fixed part 13.
  • two sealing rings 19 Arranged be­tween the fixed cover 18 and the rotatable ring 14 are two sealing rings 19 which provide a seal between the cover 18 and the ring 14.
  • a circumferential groove 20 is arranged between the two sealing rings 19.
  • the groove 20 of the illustrated embodiment is formed partly in the ring 14 and partly in the cover 18, although it is also conceivable, of course, to form the groove 20 solely in one of these two parts.
  • a number of borings 21 extend substantially radially from the circumferential groove 20 into the ring 14. Borings 22 axially adjoin these radial borings 21 and extend from the radial borings 21 in a direction towards the end surface 23 of the ring 14 abutting the sun wheel 1.
  • Each of the axial borings 22 discharges into a circle-­arcuate groove 24 formed in the ring 14 and open to­wards the end surface 23 of said ring.
  • the groove 24 extends around the full circumference of the ring 14, although it is, of course, conceivable to configure the groove 24 from smaller, separate parts should this be desirable.
  • the groove 24 is configured concentrically with the sun wheel 1 and has a radial outer defining surface which lies radially somewhat outside the bottom surface 26 of the spaces between the teeth 3 on the sun wheel 1. Narrow gaps 27 are formed in this way in the spaces between the teeth 3, where the groove 24 is open in towards the teeth interspeces (see in particular Figure 2).
  • the cover 18 is provided at at least one location thereon with a connecting device 28 for lubricant under pressure.
  • This lubricant is delivered under pressure from a pressure source not shown.
  • the connecting device 28 communicates with the circumferential groove 20 and when lubricant under pressure is delivered through the connecting device 28, the lubricant is distributed in the groove 20 and flows from said groove through the radial borings 21 and the axial borings 22, into the groove 24.
  • the lubricant is distributed in the groove 24 around the full circumference thereof and is ejected under pressure through the narrow gaps 27. Thus, pres­surized lubricant is injected into the spaces between the teeth 3 on the sun wheel 1.
  • the groove 24 extends around the full circumference of the ring 40, lubricant will be ejected simultaneously through all gaps 27, which means that all teeth 3 on the sun wheel 1 will be lubricated continuously. This provides highly effective lubrication and simultaneous cooling of all teeth 3 on the sun wheel 1. Furthermore, the gaps 23 will ensure that all lubricant arrives at the correct location, i.e. that the lubricant is used for lubri­cating and cooling the teeth 3, which results in less wastage of lubricant than experienced with earlier known methods, in which the oil is ejected through nozzles towards the gear wheel at a given distance therefrom.
